Vigilante Vibes and Coffee Highs with Batman

After a long night of crime-fighting, Batman finds solace on a Gotham City rooftop, the city skyline illuminated by the moonlight. With the cool breeze rustling his cape, he takes a moment to enjoy a steaming cup of Bat-Brew. The rich aroma wafts through the air, providing a rare moment of comfort amidst the chaos below. As he sips the dark brew, he savors the bold flavors that fuel his relentless pursuit of justice. For Bruce Wayne, this simple pleasure is a reminder that even the Dark Knight needs a moment to recharge before facing the shadows once more.

Flight of the Penguin: Escape in the Shadows

The Penguin, also known as Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot, is a supervillain in DC Comics who is a frequent adversary of Batman. He first appeared in Detective Comics #58 in December 1941 and was created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger. The Penguin is a Gotham City mobster who sees himself as the top "Gentleman of Crime" and is known for his distinctive appearance with a monocle, top hat, and umbrella. He owns a nightclub called the Iceberg Lounge, which serves as a front for his criminal activities. Unlike many of Batman's villains, the Penguin is portrayed as completely sane and in full control of his actions, leading to a unique dynamic with Batman. Various sources inspired his original comic book character design, including the Kool cigarettes mascot and high-society gentlemen in tuxedos. The Penguin is known for using high-tech umbrellas with multiple functions as his signature weapons.

[Workflow: Scanned a panel from Batman #146 (DC Comics 2024) that was drawn by Jorge Jiménez with colors by Tomeu Morey.  Within Affinity Photo I then masked out page unwanted details to focus on The Penguin, layered in a logo, added basic Who's Who biography info, tossed in a classic Rogues Galley emblem, and then masked in a new light flare.]
